Simply the music and words alone should defeat the grue. The picture included will turn it to dust. An actual appearance of Chuck Norris... (trailing off)

In other news:What would be really cool? If a basilisk zombie froze the entire group except charlie who kills it with his gun and keeps the rest of the group safe until they recover.

True, a Chuck Norris would definitely trump a grue.

And your proposition for Charlie saves the day is interesting. I don't recall whether Basilisks can freeze multiple people; do they have to make eye contact or do you just have to look at their eyes? But it's a very interesting question.

And then Milo is so full of admiration and gratefullness that he falls in love with Charlie, and Jenny kills him out of jealousy, but when she snaps out of it her mind can't aknowledge what she just did and thinks it's entirely Charlie's fault.

So I read the update, then read Jenny's comment and then read the update again. The second time through I noticed that the maintenance guy looks a little like Bill Murray and all I could think of was him from Caddy Shack.

"To eat the brain, you have to think like the brain. And when ever possible, look like the brain."

Also no Milo death theory. Not when there are immediate options that make actual sense!(though it would make sense too if Milo had a temporal artery aneurism and the facedoor bursts it and his tongue swells with blood until he can't breathe right?)
